PHOTOS/VIDEO: A Detroit man being investigated for fraud is now charged with sex trafficking and producing/distributing child pornography.

When police searched the run-down, two-story house on Tuller Street in Detroit, they found something that took even seasoned officers by surprise: a woman chained to a stripper pole, with a padlock and chain around her neck.

Apparently she had been there for weeks, she told the cops -- a form of punishment for attempting to escape the house.

The 25-year-old unidentified woman told investigators she was a sex slave, one of four living in the residence that police say was a prison-like brothel run by 32-year-old Ryon Lenell Travis.

And, believe it or not, that is not the worst of what is said to have occurred in the home. According to the affidavit mentioned in the video below, Travis not only distributed, but also produced child pornography on site.

Travis now faces three child pornography charges that could land him behind bars for at least 15 years.

On top of that, the US attorney's office plans to charge him with sex trafficking which will keep Travis behind bars for the remainder of his life if convicted.
